How does traffic ‘evaporate’ without crashing the local economy? A thread #LowTrafficNeighbourhood #Congestion #ULEZ

This account will be inactive from now and I’m removing the app from my phone. It’s up to you whether you choose to stay here, of course.

Pas de bancs et peu d'ombre à la gare routière d'Albi, pourquoi ne pas en prévoir pour les passagers des bus @Tourisme_Albi ?

Info screen chaos at Blackfriars’s Station but Donna’s diligently speaking nonstop over the Tannoy keeping travellers informed brilliantly, and singing the stops to Brighton. She’s smashing it!! Give her a reward @nationalrailenq @TLRailUK @TfL

"Through motor traffic banned from two South Bank streets" - Upper Ground & Belvedere Rd

Seems like a small intervention but massive benefits to huge numbers of people crossing Waterloo to South Bank

Hats off again to @lambeth_council @RezinaChowdhury

@EcoworrierRick Perhaps a school group or class could adopt the verge as a neighbourhood enhancement project, with a capable parent building planters perhaps? Alternatively/as well, might a couple of Sheffield stands be useful there? Maybe a bench?

At last: @TfL approves big safety improvements at Lambeth bridge, where the northern roundabout is the 'most dangerous junction in London for cyclists' https://t.co/PymywlYWTt

At conference, Sunak said:

Nobody wants an election

NOBODY

This petition says otherwise

Yes, they'll ignore it

But the more signatures it gets

...the bigger the bell he looks.

A message to the prime minister.

@benjyminty @w9maidavale @20splentyforus @SmithiesMark @Mark_J_Harper Surely all MPs drive to the Houses of Parliament?

This tweet should be required viewing for every highway engineer.

As @MoseleyRdBaths closes today for a complete repair and reordering project, just bask in the difference moving the bus stop has made (before and after, stop is now just out of shot on left)

[KenningtonPplOnBikes @KenningtonPOB]

@RantyHighwayman All good thank you, though not doing cycling stuff now, but very happy with a new-to-me lightweight Gazelle!

[KenningtonPplOnBikes @KenningtonPOB]

Great to see @ZipposCircus on its opening night at Peckham Rye, and a big bonus is that it’s a cycle friendly venue; you can wheel your bike in to the tent and park it at the buggy park!

There's a decent deal for a very few days on the French rail discount card (which also gives a capped price for last minute travel). https://t.co/u1vHanOMYd

And crush?

[Roads & Transport MPS @MPSRTPC]

Recently we’ve worked with @MPSLambethNorth, @CityWestminster & @lambeth_council to explore legal options around ice cream vans obstructing the cycle lane on #WestminsterBridge. We’ve reported offences to court, issued points, community protection notices and today, we seized.

[KenningtonPplOnBikes @KenningtonPOB]

@Onebiskuit @paulgannonbike @peterwalker99 One, on the bridge a couple of days ago, had a broken stoplight with the cluster held in place by masking tape.

[KenningtonPplOnBikes @KenningtonPOB]

Any film makers wanting to make an intriguing political investigative documentary should check out the decades long saga of the ice cream vans in sight of the Houses of Parliament. @netflix @DisneyPlus @PrimeVideo @hulu

[KenningtonPplOnBikes @KenningtonPOB]

@Mackenz81935556 @MPSLambethNorth @se1 Given the decades of failing to prevent the ice cream vans trading, the best solution may be to authorise and rent out trading pitches on the bridge, given they appear to present no security risk and provide a service and employment.

Surely billionaires doing something that might require a rescue mission buy rescue insurance, say from https://t.co/XvVfhrxsil rather than expect taxpayers to pick up the tab. Anyone know? @BBCNews
